false 3873 21 Armstrong, a British journalist and former nun, guides us along one of the most elusive and fascinating quests of all time--the search for God. Like all beloved historians, Armstrong entertains us with deft storytelling, astounding research, and makes us feel a greater appreciation for the present because we better understand our past. Be warned: <I>A History of God</I> is not a tidy linear history. Rather, we learn that the definition of God is constantly being repeated, altered, discarded, and resurrected through the ages, responding to its followers' practical concerns rather than to mystical mandates. Armstrong also shows us how Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have overlapped and influenced one another, gently challenging the secularist history of each of these religions. <I>--Gail Hudson</I> 2011826 book 1993 A History of God: The 4,000-Year Quest of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam (Armstrong, Karen) total:2157|5:565|4:865|3:576|2:119|1:32| 2157 8283 3996 370 4 5 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Dec 19 18:57:29 -0800 2007 Wed Jan 30 07:00:34 -0800 2008
